I can see sequels to Coco, Luca, Turning Red and Elemental. I don't think Incredibles 3 will happen that soon, as long as Brad Bird still works on Ray Gunn for Skydance.

Thank You, The Mom. It was getting to be tiring!
This is doing so much better than I thought it would, I predicted it might get to $500 million but thought that would be a huge success in the struggling theater business.I don’t think I saw this earlier.
Oh Happy Day: ‘Inside Out 2’ So Feeling It With $724M WW – International Box Office
Inside Out 2 through its second Sunday is at an incredible $724M global box office
Brazil joined the gang on Thursday with $3.2M, giving the movie a No. 1 launch that is the biggest opening day of all time for an animated title and the 5th highest for any film ever. It’s also tops overall for the year so far.
China less grand, but also not working with much to begin with
Meanwhile, China opened today with an estimated $2.6M (not included in the totals above). This portends a weekend in the $10M range. IO2 has a 9.5 audience score from Maoyan (which is the best for any Hollywood movie so far this year, and above the 9.0 score of the original). The sequel is expected ultimately to best the first film’s final of $15.3M
I think we can add the collapse of Hollywood in China to the list of problems with the current state of the box office. I think China last decade was largely distracting from underlying weakness in the theatrical landscape by still promising Hollywood they were in a growing industry landscape.
Not that this is bad compared to its progenitor, but China was giving us 200 million results on Zootopias and Cocos not long ago. I think one of the problems was betting on the wrong markets. China is a long play, India was clearly a mistake (it’s way too early for that market).
I’ve said several times, but if I had revisionist power over the companies decision making, the market to play into was in fact South Korea.

I think the only one I’m into is Deadpool.
Moana is one of my all time favorites so I’m hoping they do it justice with the sequel. I’m most excited/nervous about that one.
Didn’t an edict just go out to knock this off???More of the same, sadly.
‘The Acolyte’s Amandla Stenberg Releases Song After Being Flooded With “Intolerable Racism”
Amandla Stenberg, star of The Acolyte, is calling out "intolerable racism" and released a song to express their sentiments.
Yeah, I saw @The Mom ’s post and, beyond violating that, why is this here, rather than one of the two or three Acolyte threads?
And only what, 5 posts later. Lol
I'll give you 899M reasons, its a very large consumer base of 899M people who's money spends just as well as anyone spending the greenback. Its the reason why there were rumors at one point of Disney looking at India with their 473M consumers for their next international Park.I'd love for the Smart Set in Burbank to explain to us why Communist China got two new theme park resorts built there in the past 20 years. If the movies from Burbank aren't able to be screened in China, or get very little play if they do make it past the Communist censors, then what the heck was the point of spending Billions and Billions on theme parks there?
